Step 1: Access the Settings App
To begin, locate and tap the “Settings” app on your iPhone’s home screen. The Settings app icon looks like a cogwheel and is usually found on one of your home screens or in a folder named “Utilities.”
Step 2: Find and Tap “Phone”
Within the Settings app, scroll down until you find the “Phone” option. It is usually situated near the top of the list of options. Once you find it, tap to open the Phone settings.
Step 3: Tap “Blocked Contacts”
Inside the Phone settings, look for the “Blocked Contacts” option. It is typically located below options like “Call Forwarding” and “Announce Calls.” Once you locate it, tap on it to access your blocked contacts list.
Step 4: View and Manage Blocked Contacts
On the Blocked Contacts screen, you will find a list of all the contacts you have blocked on your iPhone. You can scroll through the list to view blocked contacts. If you wish to unblock a specific contact, tap the “Edit” button in the top right corner of the screen.
A red minus sign will appear on the left side of each blocked contact. To unblock a contact, tap the minus sign next to their name, and a red “Unblock” button will appear. Tap this button to confirm the unblocking.
If you want to remove multiple blocked contacts at once, tap on the red minus sign next to each contact’s name. After selecting all the desired contacts, tap the “Unblock” button that appears at the top left of the screen to unblock them collectively.
Step 5: Confirm Unblocking
After unblocking a contact, you will see a pop-up message confirming that the contact has been unblocked. Tap “Done” to close the confirmation message and return to the Blocked Contacts screen.
That’s it! You have successfully viewed and managed your blocked contacts on your iPhone. Remember that unblocking a contact will allow them to call, message, and FaceTime you again.
